its report. Three Of it's conclusions are
Of special interest. First it is proposed
that the teaching Of Latin shall begin in
the fifth class { in der Quinta) }, and shall
be continued, for five hours weekly, up
to the highest class. Second, instruc-
ton in Greek is to be declared fgkulta-
tiv; that is to say, it is to depend upon
the expressed desire of the parents OF
guardians. 1t is to begin in the fourth
class. Third, all scholars who do not
learn Greek are to learn either English
or italian in it's stead; upon one of these
lang uages, according to the choice Of the
parent or guardian, these hours are to
be spent weekly. Greek, like Latin, il
to occupy five hours weekly. The two

study OF natural science and mathemat-

Designer Of the Yacht America.


I have heard a great deal in the way of
"Reminiscences about the America recently.
Her designer, George Steers, was pretty
badly treated it seems. Stevens offered
him $4,000 for a boat that would lead in
the yachting contests. The contract be-
ing that she was to win all three of a GER
tain series of races, Stevens threw her
back on Steers hands because she was de-
feated in one of them, though she had nm.
ply proved her capacity and superiority to
anything afloat. Steers was in a great
state, for he could not afford to own her
and was owing for the material of which
she was built. He was so close pressed
that he took an offer of $780, 900, and only
founda after the sale was completed that
Stevens was tho real purchaser, the other
man being the unacknowledged agent.
Steers had his opinion of such sharp
practices, but nevertheless took so keen
an interest in his work that he consented
to go over in her to England. Stevens
was very high with him and never asked
him into the cabin. He lived in the fore
castle during the whole expedition. When
the ~Englishmen, however, found out that
Steers was the man who built the boat
which defeated them, many more of their
invitations went to him than to the ma
who merely owned it by dint of a score Of
thousands and some slippery work.
Steers staid in the f%orecastle, but he went
from there to dine on board the yachts Of
the richest and most exclusive mobiles of
England, and Stevens found himself
rather at a discount. At least that is the
story rs given to m~e.-Brooklyn Eagle.

POOR COMPENSATION.

Devils Lake is the poorest advertising
town in Dakota. The newspapers
which reach us from the live, cnterpris.
ing towns in the territory show the
cards OF ads. Of all branches Of business.
The hotels, the hardware stores, the
lumber and coal dealers, etc., all ad-
vertise their business in the local pap
ers. Not so in Devils Lake. The no.
tells of Devils Lake never advertise
yet the names of these hotels and their
proprietors are constantly appearing
in the local free gratis columns. There
are some other branches of business
which seem to despise printers ink.
We know that printers ink has done a
great deal for Devils Lake. Tho INTER.
OCEAN, with its twelve to fourteen hun.
dred circulation per week, goes out
regularly fifty two times a year to all
parts Of the United States, and is read
by thousands Of people. In every issue
of the paper there is more or less free
advertising Of the town and its people,
until the place has become known a.
''the best town in the territory" and its
inhabitants "the most enterprising."
Were it not for the trade that we
have built up outside of the town il
would be necessary for the INTER- OCEAN
to close its doors. Its local commercial
advertising does not pay the actual cos
of type setting and printing.

The following from the Press and
Dakotian means more than it says.
Thesouth D%akotans, who are largely d.
visionists, know who are their friends
in the north:
The d%ivisionists of the north have es
tabllshed themselves rs q potent factor
in the affairs of the territory and have
developed sufficient strength to seriously
menace the future Of 1.-THE gsng"-the
ieaven within tho anti-division lump.
The divlsionlsts Of the south fully ap-
preciate the significance of northern
results and recognize there an active
ally in coming conventions and legisla-
tive arrangements. Dlvisionists need
no longer draw an arbitrary line along
the 46lh parallel and there halt. They
have friends beyond-true, active and
successful friends, who have just given
to anti-dlvision its entering wedge.
The next blow of the sledge will drive il
in to the shoulder.

RESPECT FOR MAJoRITIEs.

The Minneapolis Journal has these
sensible remarks on the question of
division and the shameless conduct of
the Aberdeen capital boomers Ill get
ting up All anonymous meeting to
nullify the division majority:
The idea that a majority OF the peo-
pie of Dakota, after gaining a substantial
victory and placing themselves on rec
ord before the world as desiring dual
statehood, will humbly resign the fruits
of their labors just because the majority
for division was not 5000 or 10000 lar
ger, is almost too absurd to deserve
notice. 1t remids one of the "galr' Of
defeated Governor Ames, who wanted
Governor McGill to turn over his Office
to him because his majority WAS only
5000 or so. At the last general election
the Democrats carried the state of New
York by some 100 plurality. They
had prophesied a majority of $4,000.
Why don't they take a back seat and
give the vote Of New York to the Re-
%publicans, on the ground that their
majority was not large enough?
A'list of the "sta.csmen" who 60 to
Aberdeen to take part in the proposed
notification convention will be an in
teresting piece Of political literature
From the stand point Of speculation
and greed, the cupidity of the Aberdeen
boomers is in Il measure pardonable
but in the light of political wisdom and
decency the movement Is entitled to nc
respect whatever. If the time evel
comes for the removal of the capita
from Bismarcs-an inevitable result o.
admission as a whole-the city tina,
secures the prize will owe its success
largely to the efforts and cooperation
Of those who voted for division and be
lieve in the fundamental principle tina
! majoritiss Should be respected.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY

The INTER.OcEAN had arrived at the
conclusion that its friend Bierley Of the
Northwest News, having declared him
self in favor Of division, would stand by
that declaration beyond the mere act Of
depositing q division ballot. Yet it
would seem that the good brother had
voted one way and then opened up his
editorial batteries against the PROPOSE
ton he favored at the ballot box. Again
We say that Bro. Bierley is too good a
man to follow the teachings of the Demo.
cracy. His conscience smites him when
he undertakes q service for that party.
Bierley is q two.state man because he
knows it is right.
